    Some people on this board are going to get buried tonight...

    For weeks I have seen people say how Kentucky would beat a bad NBA team and how great they are. Everyone was right. This team is crazy good.

    They are playing a Kansas team lucky to have won their last 2 games. People people people...

    You have a chance to take them -6.5 against a team not in the same ballpark. I understand wanting to take an underdog, but this isn't the spot.

    Board will get buried because guys are looking to just take an underdog.

    The bolded part is incredibly stupid. Just wait 3 years from now when Davis is a role player and Gilchrist is a 15/7 player, maybe. Then it should be obvious to you.

    As for the rest, most of the people on this board seem to be on Kentucky, and betting huge, too.

    Kansas also struggled to beat Purdue/NC St. Not saying they have no chance to spring the upset, but Kentucky is the best team in the nation. Kentucky wins.

    So did Beasley. Every forum I went to I heard lots of fanboys talking about how he will easily average 12+ rebounds for his entire NBA career, ensuring him to be the next Dennis Rodman.

    Yup, role player. 15/9/2 in a great case scenario.

    Not saying that Kentucky is the wrong side (although I think they are), I'm just saying that most people here are on Kentucky, and big.

    I never looked at Beasley that way. Anyone that compared him to Rodman should have been slapped. Davis with his arm width and height, free throw shooting and unselfishness = great future NBA player

    Hey thanks dude, we all know bookies love giving out free money on favorites.
    Btw Pinny line is -6 +101 right now, which makes your -6.5 gift claim look incredibly stupid.

    I got it at -6.5 because that's what the line was when the bet was made. Since you can predict lines you need to use your talents for lotto.

    I am am idiot though. That's why if you read up on line movements lines generally move the opposite of the result. In other words in the history of line movements the opposite usually covers, do you know why?

    Public is wrong. Line moving that way.because everyone is taking Kansas..

    Big mistake

    Books don't always move the line way that you would expect based on public money.

    Don't see it any other way after this first half; Kansas is really going to have to pick it up if they want to contend for the championship, right now their being outplayed in every aspect of the game

    And the only way I see this changing is if Kentucky "gets bored" and loses focus. Playing for a national title I don't see that happening

    I really do feel sorry for you Kansas backers... I understand how its important to take underdogs, you guys got trapped and I feel bad for you guys. Sucks to miss something because you looked too much into it
